Sidearms & Scatterguns "Bronze" colored grease in Glock

[Smokerroller]

What grease are you guys running in your glocks? I was told that the "bronze" or "gold" colored grease from the factory was supposed to remain in there and a similar or same grease is to be ran on the slide. I thought it was a shipping or packing grease and removed it during its first cleaning and replaced it with what ever gun oil I had around. So what do you recommend I put in there? Grease, oil... doesn't matter? Thanks.

I'm not positive about this but I think it's an antisieze sort of grease that's used during break in process.

You will be fine, its just a copper grease used for that break in period. I clean it out of all my Glocks when new, never had a problem out of them either.

Like stated above. Just a bit of lube the factory uses. Most Glock owners clean it out and place a drop of gun oil on the slide rails. Good to go and fire away.

glocks and cleaning? Just rinse it with water when crud stops you from shooting

I use tri-flow synthetic grease

As stated above it is just break in grease. No harm in removing it. I leave it in there for the first range session then remove it. In the glock armorers course i took several years back they recommended to put a single drop of oil on both sides of the slide & let it drip down the length of the slide then wipe off the excess.

You got it. Doesn't matter.

Grease, motor oil, cooking oil...whatever you've got on hand will work fine.

You removed it?!?!?!? Oh man you are screwed now. Pistol won't work at all.

Seriously, I put a little grease in the railway and leave it at that. A little goes a long way.
